DOWNLOAD PDF 580 PAGES

There is no copyright for these declassified reports and documents within the USA.

For Educational purpose use only.

Documents are accessible from the CIA web site, “Reading Room. However, there is no Title to the documents other than the assigned numbers. One has to go through hundreds, if not thousands of documents in order to find out the content of each document.

Since I will be going through most of these documents for my research, I considered that compiling some selected documents may be helpful for other researchers
